That has nothing to do with the placement of the protocol in the
stack. It's a question of the payload, which is network layer

Just because a protocol is transmitted using a protocol at layer (N)
doesn't make the payload protocol layer (N+1). Management and
control protocols do not have the same rules as application protocols.
